The Fate Of Every Member Of The Warriors

9. Cleon

The co-founder of The Warriors alongside Vermin, Cleon doesn't see much action in the 1979 film. Luther shoots Cyrus dead and frames Cleon for it, resulting in him being ambushed by the Gramercy Riffs. The last we see of Cleon is when he's being swamped by a closing circle of vicious elbows. The implication is that he's beaten to death.

This is confirmed by the video game adaptation of The Warriors and the follow-up comic book Jailbreak. We get much more backstory on Cleon in the game, fleshing out his character to enlarge his stature. Jailbreak's only Cleon scene is a flashback in which he teaches Swan a lesson about never leaving another Warrior behind.

It's a shame that we didn't get to see more of his leopard-skin do-rag on the big screen.
